RT says this about HELL KAT!"Although this story contains graphic violence, it's a heart-pounding, futuristic adventure with a hardened, ass-kicking heroine who learns to love again. The characters are sharply defined, and the details of the harsh world in which they live will pull readers in."
-reviewer, Angela Black
Not too bad!!! Thank you Angela!!!
Well, I've finally finished INFERNO, the sequel to Hell Kat, and off it went to NY.
I had a tough time writing this one. I think it was because I was putting all this pressure on myself to live up to and outdoe Hell Kat. I don't want to be that girl who wrote a shit sequel to a great book. I hate that!!!
Just wanted a call out to my critique partner, Jenna Black, on this one. She kept me sane and really helped me flesh this one out. So thanks Jenna!!! You rock.
If you don't know who Jenna Black is, check her out here. Her book WATCHERS IN THE NIGHT is coming out October 2006 from TOR. I've had the pleasure of reading this book for TOR and it rocks!

An early review for HELL KAT!This just in from Coffee Time Romance, Susan White says this about Hell Kat:
The relationships between the characters in this terrific tale are absolutely wonderful. I kept wondering what would happen next. The sex scenes in particular left me panting for more. The book is a lengthened and revised version of a previous e-book publication and the results are absolutely breathtaking. Ms. Anna gives us a world that any fan of futuristic movies and storylines will absolutely devour if given half the chance. If you like futuristic stories with strong female characters and lots of suspense then run to the nearest bookstore and buy this sensational book!
Sorry, readers, I posted earilier that Barnes and Noble was shipping...it was a false alarm, they made a mistake on their website. So it's still March 1 for shipping.
